Notes from author
Good build to start with that allows you to use almost any weapon. Focus first on getting your stats to 40, 12, 40, 30, 30, 12, 10, 8. Then, if you fall in love with one or more weapons that really only scale with dexterity, consider putting 10 less points into strength and use them instead to boost vitality to 50 and vice versa for strength type weapon lovers. If you want access to nearly every weapon and/or you like something that scales with both dex and str (like the halberd), then 40 in both is great. Also there's 1 more point left for whatever you want.
